tarantulas?

i will not be touching on it very much bc tbh i think any queer person can do anything ever and still be hot and sexy and awesome (/hj)

i just… think there’s so many more issues facing our community than which of us are allowed to say what words, and as long as you’re not saying it maliciously then i don’t really see the issue. now of course this is my PERSONAL opinion and you can absolutely disagree, you have every right to do so, but i think….. just let people do what they want and identify how they want lol. if they aren’t hurting anyone then i don’t see why not. labels aren’t everything to everyone

and also like… in the broader sense.. it is just a newsies fic, it’s not an all-encompassing queer manifesto

in my mind, jack’s hesitancy to call himself a fag (which lets be real. he’s a fag. everyone in the fic is so deliciously faggy) is rooted in the fact that he HAS said it maliciously before, and therefore doesn’t feel like he deserves to say it anymore. that is an issue between him and god i think. he needs a good therapist and some good weed and then he’ll be fine

Starting this because I’m bored (this isn’t my original idea, I just haven’t seen one of these in the longest time and I want to start one)

Put the last sentence you wrote (for a WIP, or anything else really) and tag some people to keep the game going!

I’ll start:

“It seemed natural, almost, the way his limbs moved, accustomed to violence more than ever now that they had a reason to be.  It seemed natural, almost, the way his limbs moved, accustomed to violence more than ever now that they had a reason to be.”

He grimaced, glancing up. His heart dropped, throat constricting against a panicked yell as a darkened figure slammed into him, sending him crashing to the floor. He hissed, briefly blinded by the hit to his head and screeched at the hand that smashed down over his mouth and nose.

“Please don’t call him my bestie, he will beat you up,” Jack groaned. “He can certainly try but one of us learned how to throw things today and it wasn’t him.”

“‘But beating you… beating you is beating an ideology, an entire nation’s approach to chess summed up in one punk kid.’”
